I chose Gregory Morris, owner of Claddagh Tours, initially because of his beautiful brochure. After speaking with him on WhatsApp, I knew I had found the right person. He was witty, funny, and very knowledgeable. I made the final decision based on that fact that he had owned the company for more than 20 years and would personally be both my driver and guide.
As a 75-year-old woman traveling alone, I wanted adventure—but I also needed to feel completely safe. Gregory gave me both. From the moment he met me at the arrival gate until he delivered me exactly where I needed to be to drop off my luggage for the journey home, I received true white-glove treatment.
I knew it would be impossible to see all of Ireland in nine days. Although Ireland is roughly the size of Missouri, it holds thousands of years of history, culture, and stories. My hope was to understand Ireland more deeply—to glimpse its soul through its art, music, literature, history, vast green landscapes, horses, villages, bookstores, ancient ruins, sacred places, and, above all, its people.
Gregory understood exactly what I was seeking and helped me find it. I returned home with rich and meaningful memories, a deeper understanding of Ireland, and an even greater love for the Irish people and their culture. This was far more than a sightseeing tour; it was a personal and unforgettable experience! Five stars, without hesitation.
